Why Insulation Comes Before Windows
The sequence matters. Installing windows before completing insulation work creates gaps in the thermal envelope. We explain the correct order and why it prevents future problems.
Practical knowledge from coordinating renovation projects.
The sequence matters. Installing windows before completing insulation work creates gaps in the thermal envelope. We explain the correct order and why it prevents future problems.
Aerothermal systems require significant electrical capacity. The electrical panel often needs upgrading before installation. Coordinating these trades prevents costly rework.
Windows can't be installed until the surrounding structure is prepared. Insulation work affects window placement. Understanding these dependencies keeps projects moving.
Many older homes lack the electrical capacity for modern energy efficiency systems. Panel upgrades must happen early in the project timeline to avoid delays.
Optimistic timelines cause problems. We build schedules with buffer time for weather delays, material delivery, and unexpected conditions. Realistic planning prevents frustration.
Catching problems early saves money. We inspect work at each phase before the next trade arrives. This prevents compounding issues and ensures specifications are met.
Let's discuss the coordination approach that works for your renovation.
